By adding the enzyme acceptor fragment of the ଲ-galactosidase and substrate, the binding affinity of the sample compound may be evaluated as a measure of agonist or antagonist capability.Field of SearchInvolving a micro-organism or cell membrane bound antigen or cell membrane bound receptor or cell membrane bound antibody or microbial lysateInvolving a modified enzyme (e.g., abzyme, recombinant, chemically altered, etc.) Involving nonmembrane bound receptor binding or protein binding other than antigen-antibody binding Assay in which an enzyme present is a label Involving antigen-antibody binding, specific binding protein assay or specific ligand-receptor binding assay THYROID HORMONE TESTS (E.G., T3, T4, TBG, TSH, ETC.)
